Smelling another round of assaults

About 2
decades ago the first round of assault was officially launched on Ethiopia by
an invading anti-Ethiopia organization called TPLF.  The assault was planned and executed
with the help of foreign powers, primarily the US and UK, who have been salivating
to use Ethiopia as a political and economic cow. 

The preparation
for achieving the first assault took many years and involved many steps, the
major ones of which included the following:

The
systematic dismantling of the Derg regime, including making
asylum arrangements for its leader, Mengistu, in Zimbabwe, during critical time.

The
weakening or elimination of popular patriotic Ethiopian organizations, like the
EPRP (for example, the killing of 40 top EPRP leaders by TPLF in Gonder in 1991, as reported recently on Ethiomedia).

Supporting
and strengthening narrow ethnic-based anti-Ethiopia organizations, like the
TPLF, EPLF, and OLF, by foreign entities.

Creating
an atmosphere of hopelessness, fear and mistrust among the Ethiopian population
to cause instability.

 

After the
TPLF took power in 1991, the plan was executed to accomplish the goal set by
TPLF and its foreign backers.  These
included:

Seceding
Eretria from Ethiopia mischievously and illegally.

Making
Ethiopian landlocked mischievously and illegally.

Creating
further division, mistrust and conflict among the Ethiopian population along
ethnic and religious lines.

Conducting
relentless assault on Ethiopian nationalism, including on the national flag, and
the heroes/heroines of the country and its proud history.

Selling large
areas of fertile lands of the country to foreign investors by displacing the
locals who own the lands and who depend on them for their livelihood.

Owning
most of the wealth of the country by TPLF elites and their collaborators, impoverishing
the rest of the population.

Allowing
the take-over of many of the country’s other precious resources by
foreigners in the name of investment and economic development.

Suppressing
democracy and freedom, and instituting absolute dictatorship and the reign of
terror in the entire country.

Promoting
the proliferation of corruption, immoral practices and distractive behaviors in
every level of the Ethiopian society.

Unemployment,
economic hardship and the associated effects on the majority of the population.

While all
of these mean-spirited deeds were carried out under the disgraceful leadership
of the late Meles Zenawi, Ato Dessalegn H. Mariam, as a
successor, has also made his own share of contribution.  We have been told that Ato Dessalegn would continue the
work of Zenawi to fulfill his unfinished so called
vision, and, unfortunately, that is exactly what Ato Dessalegn has been doing since he took office.  The appointment of Ato
Dessalegn as a care taker was a decision made by TPLF
and its foreign backers.  This way,
the original plan of transforming Ethiopia into a “colonial” state
is assured to be maintained.   

Driving
Ethiopia into a sad state of disarray and debilitation and still having control
of the political machinery, presently, TPLF and its foreign backers seem to be prepared
to execute a second round of assaults on Ethiopia.  These assaults are designed to impact
Ethiopia negatively from the exterior. 

Preparation
is in process by the TPLF regime to give away part of western Ethiopia to the
Sudan.  Aside Ethiopia owning these
lands, the decision to cede them was made secretly without informing the
Ethiopian people.

Representatives
of the foreign governments who played major roles in putting TPLF in power in
1991, are now asking that Ethiopia and Eretria should start a relationship to
work together to start business and improve their economies, knowing that such
a relationship will only benefit Eretria while further harming Ethiopia.

Along with
the issue of establishing a relationship with Eretria, a discussion has also been
initiated regarding the formation of some sort of confederation among East
African countries, including Eretria. 
This topic was also discussed in some depth by US and Ethiopian
politicians and scholars sometime before in the 1009s after the take-over of
power by TPLF, but due to the lack of positive atmosphere for further
consideration, the discussion was abandoned.  The promoters of the idea now appear to
believe that it is time for it to be revisited.  Coincidental or not, recently, there was
a piece of news from another source suggesting a renewed interest in confederation
among the East African countries/states, but the proposal treats Ethiopia as an
agglomeration of several independent states while leaving the other countries to
participate in their present intact forms. 
Therefore, here too, sticking to the original plan set by TPLF and its
backers more than 2 decades ago, the trend seems to promote the breakdown
Ethiopia into pieces, behind the back of its owners, the Ethiopian people.            

Because of
its human and natural resource potentials for development, and the glamorous
history and culture of its people, Ethiopia has been the envy of the world.  Consequently, it has encountered numerous
attacks by external forces to snatch away what belongs to her.  The present so called rulers of the
country are nothing else but implanted facilitators of the motives of the
external forces.  Any decision made
on behalf of Ethiopia by the present regime cannot, therefore, be good for
Ethiopia and the Ethiopian people should not accept it by any means.  To have a free, democratic and
prosperous country and move forward with the civilized world, it is essential that
Ethiopians should get rid of the TPLF regime.  That is where focus should be given and
hard work should be sought at this very moment.  The consideration of time factor is important
here and it is vital to carry out what is necessary before it becomes too late
and regrettable.  A lot of time has
already been wasted unnecessarily and a lesson should be drawn from that
experience to do better.  I ask you
to think about it.

God bless Ethiopia and its beautiful
people.
